Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2018153744A1] The invention describes an array of light sources (1) comprising multiple VCSELs (2) arranged laterally to each other on top of a substrate (3), wherein each VCSEL (2) comprises a light emitting area (21) surrounded by an electrode structure (22) which does not emit light, wherein a shielding layer (4) is applied on top of at least the electrode structure (22) only covering a surface (22s) of the electrode structure (22) facing towards an average light emitting direction (5) of the VECSELs (2), the shielding layer (4) is an opaque layer and being adapted to optically match the array (10) in a switched-off state to an outer surface (11s) of a housing (11) of a device (10), where the array (1) of light sources is to be installed. The invention further describes the device (10) comprising such an array (1) and a method (100) for manufacturing an array of light sources (1).
